https://padlet.com/FAIUnderageFutsal/s08rje68jm96gvfg Project Gormanston is the next step in developing underage Futsal in Ireland. en-us 2022-10-31 19:24:14 UTC 2025-11-03 20:37:20 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-uploads.storage.googleapis.com/1026557562/616af7c4472930730787c23351378e0c/400px_Football_Association_of_Ireland_logo_svg.png FAIUnderageFutsal https://padlet.com/FAIUnderageFutsal/s08rje68jm96gvfg/wish/2363896690 The Sports hall can be accessed off the Flemington Road, opposite the doctors surgery (K32 NH30).

Once you come through the gates take the immediate right turn to the Sports Hall. There is parking to the side of the building and a large overflow carpark to the rear of the building.

When entering the sports hall, please go upstairs and do not enter the hall unaccompanied. Coaches have been asked to assemble their teams upstairs before taking the group to the hall.

The sports hall is one of the biggest in the country, with four full courts. There is a tiered seating area upstairs and there is also free Wifi and other amenities on site. We ask all visitors to Gormanston Park to take care when arriving and departing, and to respect all staff and others on site.]]> 2022-10-31 19:51:47 UTC https://padlet.com/FAIUnderageFutsal/s08rje68jm96gvfg/wish/2363896690 FAIUnderageFutsal https://padlet.com/FAIUnderageFutsal/s08rje68jm96gvfg/wish/2364003562 This simple game can engage participants prior to the session beginning. Add numbers as others arrive, moving into 2v2 or 3v3 is applicable, or make it uneven numbered games.]]> 2022-10-31 22:13:17 UTC https://padlet.com/FAIUnderageFutsal/s08rje68jm96gvfg/wish/2364003562 FAIUnderageFutsal https://padlet.com/FAIUnderageFutsal/s08rje68jm96gvfg/wish/2364005364 This can be a fun way to get any session up and running. Players are encouraged to use their front foot to receive the ball while feeling the pressure from the ball behind. Focus on the sole of the foot. The tempo of the practice can be increased and an additional player can be added to receive a pass and shoot.]]> 2022-10-31 22:16:56 UTC https://padlet.com/FAIUnderageFutsal/s08rje68jm96gvfg/wish/2364005364 FAIUnderageFutsal https://padlet.com/FAIUnderageFutsal/s08rje68jm96gvfg/wish/2364006363 This game is really good for highlighting the feint movement. Reaffirm with the participants the body movement needed to evade the defender. Introduce the ball and focus on using the core elements of the programme (sole/shield/feint). ]]> 2022-10-31 22:19:19 UTC https://padlet.com/FAIUnderageFutsal/s08rje68jm96gvfg/wish/2364006363 FAIUnderageFutsal https://padlet.com/FAIUnderageFutsal/s08rje68jm96gvfg/wish/2364007867 This game is a perfect arrival game. The players are faced with a 1v1 game, and have to use the sole of their foot to drag back the ball. Body position can be changed to pose different challenges, but it should be fun! ]]> 2022-10-31 22:22:20 UTC https://padlet.com/FAIUnderageFutsal/s08rje68jm96gvfg/wish/2364007867 FAIUnderageFutsal https://padlet.com/FAIUnderageFutsal/s08rje68jm96gvfg/wish/2364009275 One player has to react to the numbers being called as passes come in from various angles. Focus is on sole control. Progressions can include the player passing the ball then following it to become a defender. ]]> 2022-10-31 22:25:06 UTC https://padlet.com/FAIUnderageFutsal/s08rje68jm96gvfg/wish/2364009275 FAIUnderageFutsal https://padlet.com/FAIUnderageFutsal/s08rje68jm96gvfg/wish/2364010013 Another very simple game that can be used in various ways when players are arriving or as you are setting up your session. Add in players or add floating players who are always with the team in possession.]]> 2022-10-31 22:26:38 UTC https://padlet.com/FAIUnderageFutsal/s08rje68jm96gvfg/wish/2364010013 FAIUnderageFutsal https://padlet.com/FAIUnderageFutsal/s08rje68jm96gvfg/wish/2364011346 This game can be used prior to and/or during the feinting section to introduce the required body movement. It's also a fun game as the participants try and build rhythm and move in the same direction in unison.]]> 2022-10-31 22:29:33 UTC https://padlet.com/FAIUnderageFutsal/s08rje68jm96gvfg/wish/2364011346 FAIUnderageFutsal https://padlet.com/FAIUnderageFutsal/s08rje68jm96gvfg/wish/2364012370 A great arrival or warm-up game, this can be really useful if the participants bunch when playing SSGs. In Olympic Handball the players have to move into space to receive the pass, rather than moving towards the ball.]]> 2022-10-31 22:31:54 UTC https://padlet.com/FAIUnderageFutsal/s08rje68jm96gvfg/wish/2364012370 FAIUnderageFutsal https://padlet.com/FAIUnderageFutsal/s08rje68jm96gvfg/wish/2364014038 Much like Traffic Jam 1, this game is really useful for the feint section. Players are encouraged to use their body movement to trick the defender. The pace of this activity can be increased.]]> 2022-10-31 22:35:23 UTC https://padlet.com/FAIUnderageFutsal/s08rje68jm96gvfg/wish/2364014038 FAIUnderageFutsal https://padlet.com/FAIUnderageFutsal/s08rje68jm96gvfg/wish/2364021191 NB: Press and hold down on the play button to open the Youtube/Vimeo link.

This digital resource has been created for all coaches taking part in the FAI Underage Club Futsal Programme in Gormanston Park.

Previous versions created for pilots with several clubs have been amended and adapted based on feedback, and this is a culmination of that work. This resource will be further developed following Project Gormanston, and we invite all coaches taking part to feed back their thoughts and opinions.

Coaches can find lots of video content, and some of the videos are longer thank others so please take some time to look through the various activities. There are progressions within some of the videos too, and we encourage coaches to adapt the activities (if applicable) while keeping the core elements (sole/ shield/feint) of the programme present.]]> 2022-10-31 22:49:04 UTC https://padlet.com/FAIUnderageFutsal/s08rje68jm96gvfg/wish/2364021191 FAIUnderageFutsal https://padlet.com/FAIUnderageFutsal/s08rje68jm96gvfg/wish/2364031265 The programme will run every Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday from the week of November 8th/9th/10th until the week of December 15th/16th/17th.

The programme will recommence on the week of January 10th/11th/12th and will run until the week of February 14th/15th/16th.]]> 2022-10-31 23:11:35 UTC https://padlet.com/FAIUnderageFutsal/s08rje68jm96gvfg/wish/2364031265 FAIUnderageFutsal https://padlet.com/FAIUnderageFutsal/s08rje68jm96gvfg/wish/2364936539 The purpose of the House Rules is to establish habits and best practice when in Gormanston Park.

How we all act when on court will determine how the programme develops over 12 weeks.

We want all to enjoy the experience from start to finish.

All coaches taking part in Project Gormanston will be asked to sign up to adhere to the House Rules.]]> 2022-11-01 13:40:39 UTC https://padlet.com/FAIUnderageFutsal/s08rje68jm96gvfg/wish/2364936539 FAIUnderageFutsal https://padlet.com/FAIUnderageFutsal/s08rje68jm96gvfg/wish/2366485870 This presentation was prepared for underage grassroots coaches taking part in the FAI Underage Club Futsal Programme in Gormanston Park in Co.

Getting a ball at the feet of the participants as soon as your group enter the court and moving into some pre-session or arrival games for a few minutes allows you to set up the latter activities.
